Carnival Panorama – The First Band New Ship to Sail from California In 20 Years

Carnival Cruise Line recently announced its latest ship – Carnival Panorama – will be home ported in Long Beach, Southern California, from December 2019. This will be the first brand-new ship deployed on the West Coast of the USA in 20 years.

The 3,960-passenger Carnival Panorama, the third Vista-class ship in the fleet, will offer seven-day Mexican Riviera cruises from Long Beach at the end of 2019. This is the perfect destination for Carnival’s free-spirited, fun loving guests looking to cruise internationally. Reservations are expected to open late March 2018.

Like its name implies, Carnival Panorama will include onboard venues offering both indoor and al fresco dining experiences, including the:

Fahrenheit 555 steakhouse

The Library Bar

Bonsai Sushi

Along with open-air attractions like the groundbreaking bike-ride-in-the-sky attraction SkyRide, a massive WaterWorks aqua park, and the SportSquare recreation area.

“This is fantastic news for cruise lovers every where, who now have even more options to cruise from Long Beach – via just one direct flight to Los Angeles – to some incredible destinations around the Mexican Riviera.”

Also featured will be a vibrant Havana Cabana section with tropics-inspired staterooms and its own Cuban-themed bar and pool, Family Harbour featuring extra-roomy accommodations, the Family Harbour Lounge, and Ocean Plaza, a spacious dining and entertainment venue with indoor and outdoor seating. Other innovations unique to Carnival Panorama will be announced in the near future.
